| Description: | In late 1997 the Drug Misuse Research Division (DMRD) of the Health
Research Board identified a need for information about attitudes to
drugs and drug use in Ireland. Early the following year the DMRD (R. Moran) designed an attitude study and associated questionnaire, which
explored knowledge, attitudes and beliefs in relation to drugs and drug
users. The questionnaire was administered to a nation-wide sample of
1,000 respondents as part of an Irish Social Omnibus Survey in
February-April 1998. Audrey Bryan joined the DMRD in the summer
of 1998 and wrote up the study as part-fulfilment of a Master of Science
degree, later redrafting it in report format. The report was subsequently
edited by Rosalyn Moran, Eimear Farrell and Mary O'Brien of the
DMRD, in collaboration with Brigid Pike who provided technical
report-editing support. |
